context_page_description: James Lorin Richards was an American financier and industrialist based in Boston, Massachusetts.
context_section_description: Located in West Falmouth, Massachusetts, Chapoquoit Island was previously known as "Hog Island"; the name Chapoquoit is thought to have been modeled after that of a band from a local Native American tribe, the Chappaquiddick Wampanoag.
  Richards had 3 summer homes on the island. Two are pictured. The third home was where the crew of the "Dorcas", Richards yacht stayed. Many were landscaped by Frederick Law Olmsted. Chapoquoit was developed by Boston business magnate,  Charles Henry Jones, and in many cases the homes have remained in the same families for generations.
